Ina Garten’s Chicken Recipes Go Viral on TikTok

NEW YORK, NY — Ina Garten‘s recipes have once again captured the hearts of food lovers, especially among Gen Z, as her chicken dish gained significant traction on social media. A TikTok video showcasing Garten’s quick chicken dinner recently amassed nearly 250,000 views, showing that her culinary skills continue to resonate across generations.

The viral success highlights not just the deliciousness of the dish, but also its simplicity. Fans appreciate that it requires minimal ingredients while delivering robust flavor. To replicate the dish, season skin-on chicken thighs with salt and pepper, and sear them skin-side down in a hot skillet with olive oil. After about 15 minutes, they become perfectly crispy.

Afterward, add thinly sliced yellow onions to the pan, turn the chicken, and cook for an additional 15 minutes. Once fully cooked, remove the chicken and prepare a creamy mustard sauce in the same skillet. Combine dry white wine, crème fraîche, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, and salt, stirring for one minute on medium heat. Return the chicken to the pan to coat it with the sauce before serving it garnished with fresh parsley.

One enthusiastic fan commented, “This dinner is SCRUMPTIOUS and has been on repeat at our house. Just bought more chicken thighs yesterday!” Their excitement is echoed by many others who have tried the recipe, which pairs nicely with various side dishes.

Another highlight in Garten’s culinary repertoire is a cozy one-pot chicken and veggie dish from her latest cookbook. This easy-to-prepare recipe combines a whole chicken with fresh vegetables and orzo, making it perfect for autumn dinners. It was met with rave reviews when Garten first shared it on Instagram.

The dish requires a medium-sized oven-safe pot and several flavorful ingredients including carrots, leeks, garlic, chicken stock, and saffron. After searing the chicken and sautéing the veggies, everything comes together with a delightful broth that serves four.

As the culinary world looks back over Garten’s impressive career, her recipes remind cooks everywhere that delicious food can often be simple to make.
